Not sure how practical it would be given that it's plastic, but I do have some clear plastic thread I could try. Might need to get a stronger needle and a thimble though as I'd be guaranteed to do myself a mischief if I attempted it without 'protection'

You are embarrassing yourself with this talk of repairing a plastic covered saddle with gaffer tape. [shudders] Please just buy a new saddle.

But I've only just broken it in and made it bearably soft - it's only 4 months old and I'm a Scotsman and loathe to spend over £20 all over again so soon...

I've just spent about £50 on parts to repair the other damage from last Tuesday, and what with it being Christmas I'm out of spare 'bike bits' cash right now. In the last month I've also had to replace a DVD player, a PC graphics card and a PC monitor too. I'm broke !
